A heavy snowfall covered the city, wrapping the capital in a layer of silver. $100*degree*search**small*say*net*look*most*new*chapter*section******

Before dawn, several bearded men, dressed in dog skins, dragged large brooms along the street and began to clear the snow. The man who poured the incense of the night drove the donkey cart and came while ringing the bell.

"What the hell is the weather." A man rubbed his thick knuckled fingers, and all ten of his fingers were covered with chilblains.

Hearing the crisp sound of horses' hooves in the distance, the person who poured the night incense hurriedly pulled the donkey, while shouting "Hello", dragged the donkey cart to the side of the back alley, took out the tarpaulin on the cart and covered the donkey from beginning to end, lest the snow in the sky freeze the donkey, br >

The donkey whistled, and the man coaxed the donkey in his arms, and when he heard the sound of the horse's hooves approaching, he quickly knelt on the ground.

The people who swept the streets outside had already knelt beside the road, not daring to stand in the middle of the road, and if they asked these horsemen to kick their horses, it would be unreasonable.

Wearing a mink hood and cloak, Roncodo braved the wind and snow to the city gate.

The gates were opened, but they were guarded by guards in front of and behind them, and the people had long avoided their swords and spears when they saw them.

After waiting for about a moment, two green cloth mule carts arrived, followed by guards on horseback in front of the mule carts.

Roncodo stood at the gate of the city wrapped in a cloak and ate a moment of snow, and his stomach was on fire, but when he saw the mule cart coming, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

…… This is the dragon son and the phoenix grandson.

The general of the mule cart is also covered tightly, I don't know if it is to prevent wind and snow or villains. He took out the guide from his bosom, and Roncodo checked it, and when he went to the mule cart, he lifted the curtain one by one and glanced inside.

The general sat on his horse and never dismounted. Seeing that he had seen it, he raised his chin.

Long Keduo said that he finally met a person who was hanged more than the master, but for the sake of the character he was holding, it didn't hurt to give him two thin noodles. So he nodded, indicating that the person was right.

As soon as the general gave up his hand, he left with people without a word of gossip.

The driver and others on the mule cart were replaced by the people brought by Long Kedo, and the people who followed Long Kedo were a little timid when driving these two mule carts.

A bold man stepped forward and asked, "Master, let's ...... Where is this going? ”

Long Keduo hastily pointed: "One goes to the courtyard, and the other goes to the beekeeping mecca." As soon as his words fell, the man's face was already frightened, and he was afraid to pull Long Kedo, "Master, aren't you dreaming?" That's ......."

"Where the beasts stay!" Roncodo spoke for him.

As soon as this person's knees weakened and he was about to fall down, Long Keduo hahadaxiao said: "Look at your guts! ”

When the morning light first appeared, the snow was also covered with a dazzling golden light.

Today is the first day of entering the palace for the Chinese New Year, but Li Wei is still lying down and sleeping, getting up to wash up and have breakfast, and lying on the couch around the sheepskin mattress. The jade bottle brought her hot milk tea and new candy made this year, and said, "The master also went out for a walk, and he never left the house this morning." ”

Li Wei took a piece of sesame candy in her mouth, pointed to the beautiful snow scene outside the window and said, "Let's see how thick the snow is outside." It's hard to get a year at ease, and I don't go out. ”

But she wasn't a college student who could stay at home for a summer vacation with a small electricity, and she began to look at her watch frequently at ten o'clock. How did this time pass so slowly?

I couldn't help but ask the jade bottle: "What are they doing over there, Erhe?" ”

The jade bottle just came over from that side and said, "A few Gege are cutting paper." ”

"Then I'll go too." She got down and changed into a cloak and boots, and went to play with her daughter and her friends. Even if they don't feel comfortable seeing her, they can't control it.

When I got out of the yard and saw the good snow on the ground, it was so thick that people wanted to go up and step on it. Li Wei deliberately wore sheepskin boots before going out, with wooden soles added to the bottom, she had added a waterproof platform with ingenuity, and the craftsmanship of the craftsmen of the Qing Dynasty was really good and beautiful.

All in all, not afraid of stepping on snow.

"Let's go for a walk in the garden." She said.

Of course, the jade bottle listened to her, and the people behind hurriedly went to get the hand stove and other things, she said before that she was going to find Ergege, but there was no need for such a whole set of troubles.

There are only a few walking paths in the garden that have been cleared with snow, and special care is taken not to let people touch the next ones. This is all to prepare for the joy of the masters when they are in a good mood.

As soon as Li Wei appeared in the garden, the people below came to say goodbye. The steward of the waiting garden came out and said, "Greetings to Master Li." Do you want to appreciate the ice sculptures? A few days ago, I saw that it was cold quickly, and it was deliberately frozen. ”

The ice sculptures in the Fourth Master's Mansion are not blindly big, this is all determined by the taste of the Fourth Master himself, he likes delicate things, even if it is an ice sculpture, it must be frozen and beautiful. For this, the little eunuchs waiting in the garden all practiced their good skills of carving ice with one hand. 、

She had seen a pot of vivid ice peonies in the past, with layers of delicate petals, which looked like they had just been moved out of the freezer. A little eunuch standing on the side of the ice peony looked at the sun above with worry from time to time, and quietly stood in front of the ice peony to block the sun from shining on it.

Li Wei asked the steward, and it turned out that this little eunuch was the one who carved the peony. Since it was carved out, it has been guarded as an ancestor, and today I saw her running around the garden, and the steward wanted to ask him to take the ice peony out of the freezer.

Li Wei smiled: "Don't be embarrassed for him, hurry up and take it back, I haven't seen it yet, it's a pity that it's sunburned." "It's a pity, she wanted to call Ergege and them to come and have a look. But looking at the appearance of the little eunuch, if the sun goes down, it is digging his heart, liver and flesh.

Anyway, if the fourth master sees it, it will be their turn to see it, maybe it can be placed in her room.

She asked the jade bottle to reward the little eunuch with a few silver horns, which was regarded as praising him for doing a good job with this ice peony. The steward hurriedly kicked the little eunuch and told him to kneel down quickly and thank him.

"It's cold, so he doesn't have to kneel. If you have time, you can also carve two pots of flowers for me, it doesn't have to be so complicated, just make it simpler. She said.

After they left, the steward slapped the little eunuch's head fiercely: "It's rare to be stupid enough for you to do this!" Master Li rarely likes it, and there are many opportunities! You send it up, and you can't finish carving it? ”

The little eunuch also wanted to cry, and explained: "Grandpa, it's not a little stupid, I don't want to flatter Master Li, it's just that I carved this flower this time, and the others are all broken, this one is sent, and I don't dare to say that I will be able to carve it better than this next." ”

The steward said, "Then what are you still doing?" Don't hurry up and carve! ”

In Xifang Courtyard, three girls were cutting paper, and Li Wei surprised them as soon as she came over. Da Gege and Sangege hurriedly stepped forward to salute, she supported them one by one, and said with a smile: "I have nothing to do in the yard, so I have to come and play with you." ”

Da Gege smiled: "It's our blessing that Li Eniang is willing to come." As he spoke, he hurriedly asked someone to bring the snacks and tea.

"You play with yours, you don't have to bother entertaining me." Li Wei sat on the top, also took a piece of red paper and folded it, Ergege sat next to her, and Da Gege went to sit with Sangege.

Ergege whispered: "Eniang, are you unhappy?" ”

Li Wei also whispered: "Don't be stupid, you and I can not enter the palace this year, kneel or kowtow, I don't know how happy I am." ”

Ergege didn't believe it, so she had to say, "It's just a little boring." Your brothers are all studying in front of you, so you won't be able to come and stay with me until the afternoon. ”

Ergege sighed: "I don't know what the scene is in the palace......

This year's New Year, although the emperor did not say it explicitly, but judging from the fact that the fourth master only brought Fujin into the palace and even Honghui stayed, it must not be good.

Li Wei said: "What is there to think about? It's not like you haven't been in before. ”

Ergege tugged at her sleeve and whispered, "I think so...... It's a little bit wrong. ”

"What's wrong?" Li Wei didn't believe that Ergege could detect things in the palace. The most haode she used to play outside was the big Gege of the Zhijun Palace. Since Da Gege married in Mongolia, she doesn't get along well with people outside. There are also girls in the Seventh Master's Mansion, and according to her words, they are all like big sisters.

What does it look like to be like a big Gege? It's dogmatic to call Mama to manage.

The big grid of the Zhijun Royal Mansion was held in the palm of the hand by the King of Zhijun back then, and in Li Wei's opinion, even if it was the second grid of the Zhijun Palace, it did not have the bearing and majesty of the big Gege back then.

Ergege said: "Last year, the big Gege of the king of Zhijun specially gave me a gift, she is the princess of the county in Horqin, so she is probably more comfortable." I still asked her sister to hand it over, and I returned the gift. I didn't receive her gift this year, and Ergege married again, so I gave the gift to Sangege of the Zhijun Palace, but she didn't return it to me. ”

Li Wei didn't know this, after Ergege had a warehouse, she didn't have anything to do with her personal communication.

Ergege was a little anxious when he thought of this, "I just want to...... Probably something happened in the palace of the Naojun king......"

Li Wei hesitated, thinking that she still couldn't say too much in Xifang Courtyard, so she comforted her and said, "Don't worry, I heard you Ama say that Da Gege, the king of Zhijun, has already had a good news, and she is doing well over there." They have three squares in their house...... I probably didn't know you well enough to return the thing. ”

Ergege has been thinking about it for half a month, and now he almost jumped up with joy when he heard it.

"She's fine!" She clutched her chest and let out a sigh, "I'm relieved now!" ”

Li Wei said in her heart, she can't rest assured. Last night, the fourth master turned over the pancakes all night, and she was woken up by him. He probably really talked too much in his heart, so he said to her:

Thirteen and the crown prince haven't come back yet, so he's in a hurry.

After the king of Zhijun came back, except for entering the palace, the door of the palace was closed, and he couldn't see him if he wanted to.

The eighth master has been too active lately, and it is annoying to be jumping around.

Under careful questioning, the fourth master was first worried about the thirteenth and the prince, and the second was worried that the emperor would hand over the errand of the household department to the eighth master.

Because he said that the eighth master is actually more mellow than him and more thoughtful than him.

It's not that he can't be mellow, or he has always maintained this style, and now it's hard to change. He was occasionally kind to people, and he scared people.

The fourth master sighed: "There is a Lang official in the household department, who has been borrowing silver for many years on the grounds that his mother's illness is important, and he doesn't borrow much, twenty taels or thirty taels like this. But I didn't know that as early as ten years ago, he had borrowed silver in the name of his Amma's serious illness, and it was also done one after another. In the past ten years, I have borrowed a total of 7,000 taels. ”

"Oh my God......" Li Wei is going to admire this person.

"What about the silver?" The fourth master said so, there must be something wrong with the whereabouts of this silver, "He raised a little wife?" Or do you like to bet on nothing? ”

"Neither." The most difficult thing for the fourth master is this. When he first found out, he also called this man and asked him where he had spent all his money. Men spend money, nothing more than prostitution and gambling.

As a result, the Lang official cried: "The little one...... The small ones were all given to Shangguan......"

And he gave it as a gift.

Li Wei was also dumbfounded this time, not knowing whether to sympathize with this person or say that he deserved it.

The fourth master has the heart to let him go, but there are not a few people like him, so he told him that it really can't be done, and it's okay to pay back half of it first.

But these three thousand taels will also kill him.

The fourth master knew that he was embarrassed, and he didn't go to him to ask for an account, so he hung it up, and he could pay it back whenever he wanted.

As a result, he knew that this Lang official went to find the eighth, and then the eighth man returned the money for him.

Asking the fourth master to return the silver for others is a pipe dream. Take 10,000 steps back and say, he can really pay it back for others, and this Lang official is definitely not among them. With his personality, being able to forgive him is already a noble hand.

But as soon as the eighth master's handwriting is lining, the kindness is not worth mentioning.

Even if you ask Na Langguan now, he must be grateful to the eighth child instead of him.

Grace makes people compare, and he can't compare with others to see who has the greatest hand. The fourth master was depressed.

In front of Dai Duo and Fu Min in the study, the fourth master has always been confident and calm. But in the east courtyard, he rarely showed his unconfident side.

Li Wei listened and said strangely: "This is impossible, right?" Even if the emperor really asked him to take care of this stall, could he still pay back the money for all the officials? If he really has such a big family background, that's a big problem, right? ”

She knows how much money the household owes, and it has been millions of taels in the past two years. Is the eighth master so rich?

I have to say that her words of flying out of the sky made the fourth master suddenly open!

The eighth is fishing with all his might, and he doesn't have such a big family background at all! If he really intends to win hearts and minds in this way, it will become his weakness!

Li Wei was about to diverge again, but the fourth master lay down, yawned and said, "Sleep, I have to get up early tomorrow." ”

Li Wei: ==

You're the one to talk to! l3l4
